The Wisconsin Holstein Association has scheduled its annual spring Barn Meetings for later this month.

Organizers say the focus of the gatherings will be new technologies, such as robotic milking, automatic calf feeding as well as other technological advancements. Host farms will also open their facilities for tours and be on hand to answer questions.

The meetings will be held on March 22 at Village View Farm in Argyle and March 27 at Alfalawn Farm near Menomonie. Both meetings will run from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and will include lunch.

Barn meetings are open to any interested Holstein breeder in the state. For more information, call the Wisconsin Holstein Association at 800-223-4269.
